Symptoms of a Brain Tumor
There is a very specific need to be aware of the various symptoms of a brain tumor, because your primary healthcare provider may not be to be conversant with brain tumors. A brain tumor is a relatively rare disorder, and is the rarest tumor as well. In most cases, doctors do not relate brain health problems like lack of mental focus and cognition with brain tumors. The major reason behind this is the fact that it is not uncommon to hear about symptoms of a brain tumor from people who are not suffering from it. The only way to confirm the prevalence of a brain tumor, if you suspect it, is to get a brain scan.
Therefore, knowing when to get a brain scan done is also extremely important. One or a combination of the following symptoms can be indicative of a brain tumor:
- Headaches - Headaches are normal, and most of the people get headaches at some point in life. Headaches are not a clear sign of a brain tumor, but a new pattern in headaches is.
Look for the following changes in headaches:
- Different from headaches that you had before.
- Increase in frequency and severity.
- Accompanied by nausea and vomiting.
- Headache that gets worse after exertion.
- Seizure – Seizures are the second most commonly reported symptom of a brain tumor after headaches. Generalized seizures are caused by abnormal electrical activity in the brain. A seizure is characterized by a sudden loss of consciousness, muscle control, and sensation. Symptoms of a seizure can range from a slight twitching in muscles to shaking of limbs to total loss of consciousness. Seizures caused by a brain tumor are qualified by convulsions, periodic absence of consciousness, clonic seizures, and loss of elastic tension of living muscle.
- Nausea and Vomiting - Nausea and vomiting are more indicative of a brain tumor if they are accompanied by some of the other symptoms as well.
- Optic and Aural problem - Although reported by only 25% of the patients, any deterioration in sight and hearing must be reported to the doctor. Most of the times, it is the ophthalmologist who diagnoses a brain tumor, as he or she is in the best position to visibly see any increase in intracranial pressure while checking your eyes.
- Weak muscles - Any signs of strange feelings in the head, an altered gait, dropping objects, falling, or asymmetrical facial expressions indicate weakened muscles of the arms, legs, and face.
- Behavior and Cognition - Problems with mental focus, recent memory, finding the right words for expressing your thoughts, and increased impatience and intolerance can point towards a brain tumor. These symptoms can sometimes lead to inappropriate behaviors.
A brain tumor can press or violate brain tissue and damage areas in the brain that are responsible for various functions. The pressure from the tumor can also cause swelling from excessive accumulation of serous fluid (edema) in the surrounding brain tissue.
A brain tumor is a serious disease and should be attended to as early as possible. Sometimes a short delay can lead to serious damage. While some herbs and vitamins that promote mental focus can treat some symptoms like lack of concentration, a brain tumor itself requires complicated invasive treatments.

Sir, I have the honour to report that on my recent visit to Halifax to meet the D11 and D12 I asked permission of the Director of Child Welfare to visit some of our C.O.R.B children in their Canadian foster-homes. Mr Blois readily agreed to my proposal and instructed his assistant, Mr McKinnon, to accompany me. I asked that the homes should be chosen at random and not especially selected from the "top drawer".

Friday, April 18 was not a good day for the University of South Carolina Lancaster baseball team.
The Lancers dropped both ends of a NJCAA Region X twin bill to visiting Pitt Community College at the Lancaster High School baseball field.
The Lancers, coming off three losses in four game with Region X foe Florence-Darlington Tech last weekend, were hoping for better results in their return home.
The two losses dropped the Lancers to 30-17 overall, 14-9 in Region X play.

KERSHAW – The Andrew Jackson High golfers drove to their 14th straight victory of the season Thursday evening, April 10 as Andrew Jackson defeated Great Falls and Cheraw.
The Vols shot a 167, while Cheraw carded a 187 and Great Falls had a 214.
Andrew Jackson's Logan Sowell and Great Falls' Josh Payseur were co-medalists with a score of even par 36.
Tripp Watts, the interim Buford High School head football coach, has some big shoes to fill.
Watts, from now to the end of the 2014 BHS football season, will learn a great deal, but he knows now following coach Mike Wells is no easy task.
Watts, tabbed as the Jackets' interim head coach after Wells announced April 10 he was yielding his coaching duties to become the school's full-time athletics director, is doing more than replacing a big guy.
Jesus spoke seven different times while he hung on the cross at Calvary.
As he was being nailed to the cross, Jesus prayed, "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do." This showed that Jesus knew that his persecutors did not realize they were crucifying the Lord of glory.
This column was supposed to be dedicated to talking about the county budget process, but with the weather we had in February causing additional road problems, I would like to dedicate this column and my next column to talking about roads.

GREAT FALLS – Alligator hunter and American reality TV star Troy Landry of the History Channel's hit show "Swamp People" will make a guest appearance at a meet and greet at the Great Falls Rescue Squad Rodeo this summer.
A native of Louisiana, Landry grew up in the Atchafalaya Basin region of Pierre Parte.
He is a third-generation member of his family to live in the area and one of a group of local people who hunt American alligators.
The first Lancaster High School alumni basketball game was a slam dunk.
The event, held Saturday, April 12 in the Lancaster High School gym, included three games – a women's game along with two men's contests.

Key Reserves: Robert Parish | Anthony Mason | Walter Davis | Terry Porter
Just like he should be! haha
too bad our current champ isn't around at the moment
Doesn't matter. looks like second round isn't going to be simmed unless all or most of the GM's vote to sim it.
Shopping my last few second rounders for points PM me if interested.
"I want ONLY 9 eyebrows in the starting lineup for the Hornets next year." I typed this before the draft lottery
Surprised no one has taken Dajuan Wagner . Wish his potential rating would have been adjusted a little higher.
can we just sim the rest of the picks? we can get better players thru free agency
HR Sim League - Washington Wizards
yea sim my last 2nd
HR Sim League - Philadelphia 76er's (0-0)
Chauncey Billups | Jerry Stackhouse| Danny Granger| Kenyon Martin | Marcus Camby
you're actually up busta, you can just pick one
It's already 9am. Couple of picks should be auto-simmed by now.
Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams
Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston
I think anyone who wants to pick in the second round is the proud owner of a panis. Look it up it's a medical term.
Guys to watch out for (internet tough guys):
Guys that know you are personally a coward despite never meeting you or holding a real conversation with you (psychic or stalker):
I prefer the Urban Dictionary definition. Puts it into context for me.
I think people are too impatient. Relax, enjoy life.

Cutting number of events in rowing, canoeing, and kayaking. Same with cycling and BMX.
Number of athletes from each country could be cut down. T&F could be limited to two athletes per event per country like swimming. Cut tennis entry to two per country. Max two athletes per event per country in Badminton and table tennis. Ditto for cycling, mountain bike, and BMX.
The IOC has made previous attempts to limit the number of competitors which is why track & field now has tougher standards. This latest decision seems to be an attempt to simply limit the number of sports - which is why merging Triathlon and Modern Pentathlon into one federation would have been the simpliest answer.

Red Alert - G7 Conference
The finance ministers of the G-7 countries are meeting in Washington. The first announcements on the meetings will come this weekend. It is not too extreme to say that the outcome of these meetings could redefine how the financial markets work, certainly for months and perhaps for a generation. The Americans are arguing that the regime of intervention and bailouts be allowed to continue. Others, like the British, are arguing for what in effect would be the nationalization of financial markets on a global scale. It is not clear what will be decided, but it is clear that this meeting matters.
The meetings will extend through the weekend to include members of the G-20 countries, which together account for about 90 percent of the global economy. This meeting was called because previous steps have not freed up lending between financial institutions, and the financial problem has increasingly become an economic one, affecting production and consumption in the global economy. The political leadership of these countries is under extreme pressure from the public to do something to solve — or at least alleviate — the problem.
New proposed tax changes
This is something you should be aware of so you do not get blind-sided. This is really going to catch many families off guard. It should make you worry.
Proposed changes in taxes after 2008 General election:
0% on home sales up to $500,000 per home (couples). McCain does not propose any change in existing home sales income tax.
28% on profit from ALL home sales.
How does this affect you? If you sell your home and make a profit, you will pay 28% of your gain on taxes.
If you are heading toward retirement and would like to downsize your home or move into a retirement community, 28% of the money you make from your home will go to taxes. This proposal will adversely affect the elderly who are counting on the income from their homes as part of their retirement income.
MCCAIN 15% (no change)
How will this affect you? If you have any money invested in stock market, IRA, mutual funds, college funds, life insurance, retirement accounts, or anything that pays or reinvests dividends, you will now be paying nearly 40% of the money earned on taxes if Obama become president. The experts predict that 'higher tax rates on dividends and capital gains would crash the stock market yet do absolutely nothing to cut the deficit.

Under Obama your taxes will more than double! How does this affect you? No explanation needed. This is straightforward.
MCCAIN 0% (No change, Bush repealed this tax)
OBAMA Restore the inheritance tax
How does this affect you? Many families have lost businesses, farms, ranches, and homes that have been in their families for generations because they could not afford the inheritance tax. Those willing their assets to loved
ones will probably lose them to these taxes.

My Mothers Birth Certificate and Obama's
October 22, 2008
Joan Swirsky
(critical videos and documents below)
Four years ago, when I had just about completed the lengthy legal and financial vetting process required by the U.S. government to place my then-92-year-old-mother in a nursing home, I was asked to produce her birth certificate as "proof" of her citizenship. While she was born in America, had voted in every election for untold decades, and paid her taxes religiously, that wasn't good enough to qualify my elderly mother –deaf, legally blind, and confined to a wheelchair – to be admitted to the facility I had chosen for her near my home.
Frankly, I didn't think finding my mother's birth certificate was possible, given the fact that she had been born in a farmhouse in Storrs, CT, along with nine of her 10 siblings, to parents who didn't speak English. Despairing that she would never be "qualified" to receive the care she desperately needed, I set about to find the document, which I was sure had vanished in the unreliable record-keeping of 1913.
First I called an official in Hartford, the capitol of Connecticut, who recommended that I call the Storrs record-keeping office.
That took two minutes.
Next I called the Storrs office and was told to call another number.
That took two minutes.
When I called the third number, I explained to the woman who answered the phone that I was "asking something impossible." I gave her my mother's first name and her father's last name.
Within four minutes, she said, "Here it is!" She had found my mother's birth certificate, and it surprised me when I learned my mother's "real" first name and "real" last name had changed significantly as she and her family became Americanized.
When I expressed my amazement, the woman said: "That's nothing...we're routinely asked to find birth certificates from the 1800s, and we do that all the time!"
Total time it took me to find my mother's 1913, born-in-a-farmhouse birth certificate: 10 minutes!
To this date, Barack Obama has refused - or been unable -to produce an authentic birth certificate that attests to the fact he is an American-born citizen. He has had more than the two-years of campaigning for the presidency of the United States to do this, but failed.
Why is this important? Because the Constitution of the United States expressly forbids anyone born on foreign soil to run for the highest office in our land!
You would think that Obama would have volunteered the "proof" of his eligibility within a nanosecond of entering the race. But here we are, less than two weeks away from the election, and Americans still don't know if Obama is an American!
While Obama's camp submitted a supposedly authentic birth certificate to the far-left blog Daily Kos, it was found to have been a photo-shopped version of the birth certificate of his half-sister, who was actually born in Hawaii, as Obama claims he was.
While this glaring omission in Obama's eligibility to become the most powerful man on earth mystified some and rankled others, a few people - clearly alarmed at what they considered a stealth candidate's attempt to dance his way around the Constitution and venture into the realm of criminality- took action.
The first sleuth was lawyer Philip J. Berg, a Democrat from Pennsylvania and an undisguised Hillary fan.
Last August, Berg - a former deputy attorney general of Pennsylvania and one-time candidate for both governor and senator -filed a lawsuit in Federal Court (Berg vs. Obama, Civil Action No. 08-cv-4083) seeking a Declaratory Judgment and an Injunction against Obama, alleging that the first-term Illinois senator did not meet the qualifications to be President of the United States.

1073 Manhattan Ave, Brooklyn, NY | Directions 1122240.735344 -73.955413
Tell Me It's Not True... – Having been to this excellent restaurant several dozen times over the past couple of years I am truly disappointed that they appear to have closed, apparently a victim of this winter's brutal weather and thinned out crowds.
I must say I am surprised to see that some folks had poor experiences here. My wife and I and the numerous friends we brought along on various occasions had nothing but fabulous food and great times. The waiter also added to the experience, being extremely personable as well as helpful.
Gonna miss this place. Where will I go now for top notch food and at the same time be able to bring my own special bottle of wine?
"Lame and Jaffy" – I have never taken the time to write a restaurant review, but my experience at Lambe & Jaffy warants a response. After sitting down to a meal that tasted like it was squeezed out of a lemon juice bottle, we waited 45 minutes for a bananas foster dessert that was so burnt that the diners next to us commented on the smell.
All had seemed to be going well service-wise until the alleged owner and a group of his hipster cronies sat down at a table--they had gone through appetizer and entree in the time that we waited for one course.
I am completely disappointed that this neighborhood restaurant falls short---but I wouldn't waste another dollar -- let alone $18 on an overpriced entree (in Greenpoint!!!), at this hole in the wall.
Uninviting Exterior – I have lived within spitting distance of Lamb and Jaffy for over a year. This place looks like a cave from the outside. Thick worn, wooden doors and always-closed drapes warn off many potential customers. There is no chance of seeing inside from the street, something that drastically hurts this joint. While the food may be good, the owners of Lamb and Jaffy are doing the restaurant a disservice by concealing its interior. The complete lack of street presence may be an approach that works in more well travelled areas, where foot traffic is greater and convenience overcomes convention, but not on Manhattan Ave and Eagle street. There is a tiny "LJ" monogrammed stain glass window and well worn clap board outside. I could almost guarantee this eatery would see a double in walk-ins if they replaced their completely concealed facade with something lighter, windows to the inside, and a more recognizable sign. At very least, a $20 can of white paint and ditching the heavy drapes could dramatically impact the place. When scouting new restaurants, one wants to be able to have an indication of the type of atmosphere they will be walking into: fancy, casual, modern, rustic, etc. Without change, I see this place going the way of a former fav "The Williamsburg Cafe"...if people don't know it is a restaurant, it will never do well.
Bound to get better, give it a try! – I give l&j 4 stars because of the food and the ambience. The space is really lovely. The food has always been rich and tasty, especially in the glut of thai/mexican/chinese dinner options on the northern end of greenpoint. I've eaten here (and done takeout) a handful of times over the years and the food's always good. I've done takeout from l&j twice in the past month and it has been fantastic -- especially the lamb burger, if you can handle the greasy indulgence.
The reason I didn't give 5 stars is because of the service, which is hit-or-miss -- it definitely feels like a chef from the kitchen was pulled out to wait tables. Yesterday there were 4 four-tops going and the waiter looked around in bewilderment when I placed a takeout order in person.
But for me, 4/5th of the restaurant rating is about the food and the ambience, and l&j has it right for me in these areas. They just need to up the service level a bit, and everything will be in place. Give it a try!
Delicious – I went to Lamb & Jaffy earlier this year with some friends. I had the skirt steak, which was fantastic. It was cooked perfectly. The atmosphere of the place was great, the server was very attending and humorous.
I've been raving about it ever since this occasion. My husband and I went there one evening, around 5, and despite the posted hours claiming it was open at 5:00, the doors were locked and it was completely empty. We walked around the neighborhood for about 20-30 minutes, went back, and still no luck. I was so disappointed.
A homey Greenpoint oasis for far-reaching New American cooking. – Toward the end of Greenpoint's Manhattan Avenue, where the restaurants thin out dramatically, the colorful exterior of this inviting New American spot beckons diners. Exposed brick, loads of dark wood and the cheerful staff make the space feel like a country home's kitchen. The seasonally changing menu overflows with international touches like cilantro pesto in a roasted avocado salad, game hen from Peru and black truffles dotting sweet corn risotto. Hewing closer to home: Beef, lamb and bison burger and, for dessert, bananas Foster.
avoid delivery – I have never eaten at Lamb and Jaffy, but kept hearing great things. I ordered take out (I know, I know) and have to say I was completely disappointed. I only live a few blocks from the place, but when the food arrived it was room temp at best. We got a red pepper stuffed with couscous, which was roasted (not mentioned on the menu) and boring, soggy, overly oily and uninspired. Cheese burger; I ordered it med. rare, it came burnt to a crisp. It was actually not edible and I had another sent over.. the second time was almost as bad.. the grill must have been too hot and the outside had the flavor of cinders while the inside was a mushy grey glob, the color alone was enough to stop me from taking another bite, and made me wonder if thats why the first one had been cooked to death, again, the lions share went to the dog. The fries were what I would imagine corrugated cardboard to taste like... Finally we got the brie salad.. while it was the most edible thing we ordered, thats not saying much, I found the greens to overly smothered in dressing, limp and soggy, the pastry wrapped brie was too much, heavy and lifeless. We didn't finish any of the dishes and the $34 bill felt steep for the quality and preperation of the food. Especially alarming was the quality of the meat, I can't imagine the burger being any less grey at the restaurant, maybe the lights are too dim to notice. All that aside, the person on the phone was very friendly and when I called to say the burger was over cooked, they sent another over no questions asked.
I will try Lamb and Jaffy again, but I will never order take-out from them again... The worst part was I blew my food budget for the day, so I had to eat cereal and milk at home so as not to go to bed hungry!
Disappointing at best.
great food – what a treat, to have this restaurant in greenpoint. the only point of frustration is an ever-changing schedule for when they're open. make sure to call ahead before you go. the duck is great, as are all the fish dishes. the lamb burger is a bit heavy. brunch is heavenly (only served on sundays). byob indeed does help keep the tab down. enjoy!
Great Value / Very Good and Interesting Food. BYOB is a plus. – We really enjoyed the food although one of our dishes was served a little too close to room temp. I had the lamb chops which were very flavorful. If none of your dishes are served with the Potatos Au Gratin make sure to order a side for the table. My date was wowed by the complimentary flavors of the duck. The backyard outdoor garden seating is nice and the fact that it is BYOB really makes it affordable to enjoy a nice bottle of wine with dinner. I think the biggest complaint I had was the lighting. It was just too dark and the light by the door is overly bright casting huge shadows across the tables. A little attention to detail would really make this outdoor space sing. Overall, good food and service at a more than fair price
THE VERY BEST IN FOOD – The food in this place is amazing.The flavors are perfectly complementary.
The dishes are fantastic.Love devils on horseback,the gravlox/beet salad is
magic.As are the duck and the fish dish served with the best carrots I have ever had.
If your ready to sit down for dinner and be amazed by the food.Then come here and bring an incredible bottle of wine to accompany the exceptional food.

Snowshoe hiking
This is a mode of transport once used by our ancestors. There was no indigenous tribe that didn't develop its own type of snowshoe. While these were formerly made of wood, small branches and animal sinews, today's snowshoe hiking fans have a choice of high-tech materials. If you can walk in mountaineering boots, you will also be able to hike on snowshoes across the glittering snow through undisturbed winter landscapes, far away from the piste. Zermatt has four marked snowshoe trails. Guided hikes are a very special experience, and are also offered in Randa and Täsch. A meditative experience for all ages.

If you've ever stood on the second floor of the Los Angeles Central Public Library and marveled at the explosion of color within the rotunda or the 12 adjacent murals depicting California history, then you have the Los Angeles Conservancy to thank. When the library was scheduled for demolition in the mid-1970s, concerned citizens formed the Conservancy to save the rotunda, the exterior limestone sculptures, and the library's many other architectural treasures. The group finally convinced the City Council to preserve the library in 1983, after years of public discussion, debate, and book-sniffing sit-ins. Ever since, it has advocated for greater Los Angeles's historic sites and educated people about the city's architectural heritage. The Conservancy is responsible for saving and revitalizing landmarks such as the former Cathedral of St. Vibiana, Frank Lloyd Wright's Ennis House, and the world's oldest remaining McDonald's restaurant.
To accomplish its mission, the membership-based nonprofit offers a number of ways people can experience these beautiful and storied places. The Last Remaining Seats series earned a Reader Recommendation for Best Film Series and Best Downtown Event in the Los Angeles Downtown News' 2012 poll, in which the conservancy's walking tours also earned the title of Best Downtown Tour. But the organization does more than save grandiose public buildings: increasingly, it also focuses on smaller community projects such as garden apartments and sites that reflect the area's rich Latino culture.
Executive director and 20-year Conservancy veteran Linda Dishman explained to Patt Morrison of the Los Angeles Times, "People are becoming more vocal. …That's one of the great secrets about Los Angeles: People really identify with their neighborhoods." The Conservancy also presents annual preservation awards to honor the efforts of individuals who fight to save places such as Pann's Coffee Shop and Griffith Observatory.
In 1927, after seven years of Prohibition, Vincent Rizzo had an idea. He would buy a winery. While this may have been an unconventional move, he knew he could get Bernardo Winery at a lower price and keep the business thriving with an unlikely product: olive oil. In a stroke of cunning and arguable genius, the first-generation Rizzo owner made use of the olive trees growing on his property, selling the cold-pressed virgin oil to many of the tuna canneries in downtown San Diego. He also continued production of sacramental wine and grape juice that was, according to the winery's website, "guaranteed to ferment by the end of the road."
The winery grew to be one of San Diego County's major wine suppliers in the late 1940s, and Vincent turned the family business over to his son, Ross, in 1962. Ross's passion and dedication fueled the winery's success until his passing in 2008. Ross Rizzo, Jr. now keeps his father and grandfather's legacies alive, adding new varietals and winemaking techniques to the company's repertoire while paying homage to the old ways. Ross still sources his grapes from local vineyards and produces and cellars his wine to develop each variety's distinct flavor.
Guests can get a behind-the-scenes look at the historic winery during tours and tastings, and the scenic spot also hosts private parties at several outdoor venues and in the Barrel Room, where wooden rafters and huge redwood wine-storage vats create a rustic feel. Once they are done tasting, visitors can wander through a micro village of shops and studios or get a bite to eat at Cafe Merlot. The sprawling property features nods to its storied past with accents such as wagon wheels and an antique thresher machine and events such as grape stompings, otherwise known as do-it-yourself purple pedicures.
Winchester Mystery House is an imposing Victorian mansion built by Winchester Rifle heiress Sarah Winchester. The house's floor plan is a study in eccentricity, boasting details including twisting hallways, secret passages, and stairways that lead nowhere. Sarah Winchester built her profoundly odd home in an effort to drive away bad spirits, including that of her late husband, whom she believed cursed her upon his death. While Sarah compulsively remodeled the house until her death in 1922, historians estimate there must have been between 500 and 600 rooms built in total. Due to the extensive remodeling and the ravages of time, only 160 rooms remain—though, by any standard, the house remains a sprawling homage to Sarah Winchester's tormented mind.
Today, visitors make their pilgrimage to the house to witness in person all its peculiar glory. The home is lovingly restored and now plays host to a number of fun, bone-chilling excursions each day. Thrill seekers can stalk through the halls by flashlight during guided tours that divulge the sordid details of Sarah Winchester's nightly séances. History buffs can explore rooms dedicated to period furniture, antique trinkets, and vintage firearms found in the home. A gift shop and café onsite give guests the opportunity to purchase souvenirs, some more edible than others.
The thick September fog haunts the water like a lonely ghost, obscuring the boat's passengers' view of everything but their fellow riders. Convinced that they'll see nothing more that day, Captain Joe Nazar turns his vessel around and heads back to shore when suddenly, out of the brume, a graceful hulk breaks through the rolling waters. The boat has unwittingly happened upon a pod of humpback whales, and everyone––including the seasoned naturalist guides aboard––suddenly falls into a stunned silence as the majestic creatures spout water and dive into the mist. Fostering humbling, awe-inspiring interactions with nature such as this is Captain Joe's raisons d'être and the driving force behind the founding of San Francisco Whale Tours.
San Francisco Whale Tours demonstrates the beauty and diversity of the Bay's bustling ecosystem with regular nature tours that trawl the coast. Captain Joe––aided by his expert crew and sage naturalists––shares his passion for aquatic adventures with his guests via leisurely excursions through the waters of the Farallon Islands aboard the Kitty Kat, his trusted watercraft. The catamaran ferries its curious passengers in style with a sun deck and enclosed cabin, and its low wake and gentle underwater noise make it a model marine houseguest. Aiding the crusade to preserve whale populations, San Francisco Whale Tours donates a portion of profits to the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society.
Behind courtyards filled with lit fountains, verdant trees, and grassy spaces stands the glossy façade of River Park shopping center. During each annual A Taste of River Park these courtyards fill with local chefs serving tastes of their restaurants' signature dishes and Central Valley wineries pouring samples of their wines. While visitors stroll through the outdoor festival, the mall's retailers put on a fashion show of upcoming fall fashion trends and demonstrate the 21 ways to button a cardigan. Visitors can also thrill to the sights and sounds of the featured live entertainment.
Fright Planet Haunted Theme Park's outdoor theme park acts as a library of the world's most potent phobias. Every year, cast members reimagine its catalog of haunted environs, crafting new sets, props, and characters to prey on guests. Its dedication to genuine scares calls for only the best actors and the most grisly scenery, which is constructed with the help of a former Disneyland artist and a bulldozer possessed by the soul of a 1700s architect.
The 2013 lineup has expanded to include 10 attractions, including the ScreamMax 3-D movie theater. Though the houses all have distinct themes and decor, they share two factors: a richly painted backstory and a population of live, ghoulish denizens. Staring toys line the shelves at Höbart's Doll Factory, tight passageways put the squeeze on those brave enough to enter Jatinga: The Forbidden Temple, and cornstalks bear bloodstains on Podunk Farms. Other experiences play on claustrophobic fears—for example, Buried Alive: The Ride shuts patrons into a coffin where they endure a simulated hearse ride, burial, and the chilling sound of worms calling dibs on their body parts.

It's Like Firing God
Masters Of Sex Season 1 Episode 12 recap Ha! Okay, this show doesn't go for the cheap laugh or any laugh, per se, but I didn't mind that line from Lester. It was a much needed moment of levity in an episode that seemed like it was going to break under the weight of its own revelations. Full Story
Let Johnson Be Johnson
Masters Of Sex Season 1 Episode 11 recap. Wow. This show has never been anything other than an investigation of gender – it's not even about sex, really, given that Masters and Johnson haven't pinned down ways to investigate the x-factor that is attraction. No, the show is about men and women, and what it means to be each, and what can be done to change the looks of the role you were assigned to. Full Story
Michael Buckner/ Getty
Masters Of Sex Season 1 Episode 10 recap The first and only episode of Rags to Riches I ever saw was about the threat of the nuclear bomb. Kids in grade school were doing practice sessions for when the air raid sirens went off, and then at the end, they all sang "Drift Away". It confused me, as did this episode of Masters Of Sex. Full Story
How Many Ways Can I Call You A Whore?
Masters of Sex Season 1 Episode 9 recap Do you remember the most exciting conversations of the first couple of months away at school? It doesn't matter if you didn't go, you still know the ones I'm talking about. After too many Mike's Hard Lemonades (Ugh, I don't miss you, 1997), someone starts getting daring while talking about, you know, sex, and someone else one-ups them, and the whole thing feels very naughty and titillating even though nothing is actually happening and half the people are lying? Yeah. Full Story
Masters Of Sex Season 1 Episode 8 recap Okay, I know. We're above the break on the site, but come on. Vaginas, on this show, are not spoilers. I'll tell you what though, I am pretty surprised at how liberal everyone is about sex. Maybe I thought 1957 was more taboo than it obviously was, but Jane sasses about greeting each new person in the study with a wink and a smile, and Margaret Scully was the only one who didn't have sex until her wedding day, and it turns out the Provost's hang-ups about sex are, um, his alone. Full Story
Isn't it A-n-a-e-s-t-h-e-s-i-a?
Masters Of Sex Season 1 Episode 7 recap. So. Suppose I told you I was watching this show, um, not on broadcast channels. As such, sometimes there are, er, anomalies. To cut to the chase, this is the first time I've seen the credit sequence, and I don't know if that's because it's new as of this episode, or because of other…reasons. Full Story
When the cat's away…
Masters Of Sex Season 1 Episode 6 recap Oh, Libby. I knew there was a reason you were on this show and not an annoying, insipid actress but someone who had actual dramatic heft (Caitlin FitzGerald has been in everything), but this still made me sad. It's sad from the beginning, of course. Full Story
Mothers and Fathers
Masters of Sex Season 1 Episode 5 recap. Well. Is anyone watching this show except me? Because it is just really satisfying. That sounds awful to say in the wake of this week's deeply sad episode, but you get the idea. I just don't know if people are exploring these ideas – about families and genetics and how your sexual self is like the rest of you – anywhere else, and it's valuable. Full Story
She Knows What Feels Good
Masters Of Sex Season 1 Episode 4 recap There's an inclination to be whispery and respectful of certain people after their deaths, and I certainly think that's mostly appropriate. But sometimes it precludes things that I really miss – like how funny Heath Ledger was when he asked of Bianca Stratford, "What is it with this chick? She got beer-flavoured nipples or something?" See? You just smiled. Full Story
Women on Their Backs
Masters of Sex Season 1 Episode 3 recap Hard not to see, right? Everywhere women are on their backs, waiting for something to happen to them (in one memorable case, orgasm that never arrived) and it's men who stand there and demand results one way or another. This is true in the case of the quadruplet story, which to me was way underdeveloped – let's meet the mother who was so unaware of what was going on! What does this mean for her? – as well as in the "Betty is thwarted in her quest for children, which may actually just be her quest for the Pretzel King" endeavour. Full Story
Masters Of Sex – Race To Space
Masters Of Sex Season Episode 2 recap I really hate the expression "I am X show's/celebrity's/concept's bitch". I hate it a lot. In addition to being reductive and simplistic, it is, like all other bad expressions, really overused. So I'm going to have to figure out another way to describe how I feel about Masters Of Sex. Full Story
Here's what I know you want to know – is this show clinical and kind of boring, or sexy enough to be titillating viewing, or something in the middle? One of the things that happens is that dudes who say "How does Wesley Snipes from 30 Rock get to have women like Kate Beckinsale and Rachel McAdams?" will continue to say that. Full Story

Erika's Colorful Yet Simply Stated Bedroom
Images: Bethany Nauert
19 Comments
That looks like the gold-trimmed princess furniture I had when I was a little girl. Nostalgia attack!
@ LolaDanger, I was just about to write the same thing! ;-)
And I love the wall color.
@Elizabeth II, it makes me wish I'd held onto mine. Did you have the canopy bed, too?
I love it, it looks like a peacock!
I had that furniture too... still do! But I painted mine chocolate and glazed it with black--which weirdly makes it look almost like a wood finish--and spray painted the hardware silver. Love it!
I really like the green of the walls. I would paint the other walls as well, but maybe that would be too dark.
I very much like your gallery wall and the moody jewel colors at the bedroom end. Thanks for sharing your space!
Great style, but house tours should really include a better idea of the entire apartment. A floor plan would be great. Several pictures of a few small vignettes does not do it.
Absolutely lovely.
I !love! that green color with the purple. It is very moody and majestic!
I agree with LauraE that I'm not certain how to put all the spaces in the pics in context with each other. A better idea of the layout and how these spaces interact would be swell.
What's that green paint color and who made it? It's a really good green.
I am a minimalist and all light/natural kind of person and I do adore this room.
It is something, to put together a room with colour and various objects and attract a minimalist.
Lovely Colours.
Lovely bed.
Paint color please?
yes...I agree about the context; being given more info on the apt layout would help...
I also agree about the colors: they are SO beautiful!!! I also love how the mixture of furniture, textures, and the placement of pieces say "minimalist" without trying to "be" minimalist!! Good job!!
yes, please share the paint color!
that wall color is fantastic. i would love to see a white comforter on that bed. it would really make the wall go boing!!!
I LOVE the paint color on the walls! So inviting!!
I love the lush green and the deep purple together xxx
The green in the bedroom is Martha Stewart in Bonsai. The green over the dining table is Martha Stewart in Lilypad. It is hard to tell in the photo but the one over the table is more of yellow based green and is lighter.
Love these colors together. Great choice.

ShoreTel CFO and senior vice president Mike Healy vividly recalls the one time in his four years with the company when it missed its quarterly revenue forecast. "It wasn't a big miss," says Healy, "but our stock went from $13 to $6 in one day."
The fact that it was the last month of 2007 didn't help, but Healy says a major contributing factor was a lack of visibility. Not that the company couldn't see into its sales pipeline: it knew what its then-400 channel partners were doing in terms of selling ShoreTel's VoIP products. The problem was what it couldn't see. The company hadn't realized that it hadn't recruited enough new partners to "pick up the [revenue] slack" in the quarter's final month.
Today, ShoreTel relies on a portal to get a better grasp of how its partners are faring, and Healy is confident the company's stumble won't be repeated.
The recession certainly drove home the message that if cash is the blood that keeps a company's cheeks rosy, the sales pipeline is the major artery through which it flows. As Paul A. Boulanger, managing director, finance and performance management, for Accenture, puts it, the downturn "made CFOs wake up to the volatility of the environment.
"I bet that if you dig underneath companies that had earnings-per-share surprises," Boulanger continues, "it maps to disconnects with sales pipeline management systems."
These days, a CFO's ability to get near-real-time feedback on leads going in one end of the pipeline and wins coming out the other is, according to Mark Thompson, consumer technology practice leader for The Brenner Group, "table stakes." The tools that enable visibility "are not that expensive anymore," Thompson says. "What's key is the skill in matching the tool to a process. That is the CFO's real job."
That, and maximizing financial performance. Doing so requires good tools, better processes, and, as Jonathan L. S. Byrnes, MIT senior lecturer and author of Islands of Profit in a Sea of Red Ink, says, the ability to "understand what you're not doing, what you're not seeing," such as the aforementioned dearth of channel partners for ShoreTel in late 2007.
A beating from Wall Street is not the only punishment awaiting CFOs who miss forecasts. According to a 2009 University of Illinois study, "missing one quarter of consensus earnings forecast…increases the probability of CFO dismissal by 18.57%."
Time to Act
So there's a lot of pressure on CFOs to manage earnings if a peek into the pipeline reveals that revenues are trailing. But Forrester Research principal analyst Andre Pino says CFOs need to go beyond what they see. "If sales historically falls short of its projections," he says, CFOs need to add a factor to the pipeline that will make it reflect the plan more realistically. "One of the advantages of sales force automation (SFA) is that you can determine when you're off track so you have time to put corrective actions in place to offset a revenue shortfall," says Pino.

He's about to be a Kansas City Royals signee.
The senior pitcher told The Star on Tuesday that he will sign a minor-league contract on Thursday, then fly to Surprise, Ariz., to begin evaluation and mini-camp work.
The Samford signee will forego playing college baseball.
"I'm going," he said.
He declined to specify his signing bonus demand but said the Royals agreed to meet it then upped the ante. This because they had to take him in the sixth round, or later than they had planned.
Earlier Tuesday, the Royals made Lovvorn the 193rd overall pick in the draft.
Tuesday marked Day 2 of the draft and covered rounds 2-15. The final 25 rounds will play out today.
Coming into the draft, Lovvorn was among four Oxford High standouts considered likely to be drafted. Oxford coach Wes Brooks said pitchers Tucker Simpson and Jackson Stephens and outfielder Mathew Goodson — all more touted than Lovvorn coming into the draft — could get the call today.
"I anticipate one, maybe two, getting their name called tomorrow," Brooks said.
However, new rules governing draftee compensation make it more likely that Simpson, Stephens and Goodson will play college ball instead of signing a pro contract this year. Past the 10th round, all selections are subject to the $100,000 maximum.
Stephens and Goodson have signed with the University of Alabama and Simpson with Florida.
Signability is a major factor in draft decisions. Players often slide in the draft or don't get drafted because they've expressed a preference toward college — either directly or by naming too high a price for foregoing college.
"All three guys, as far as ability, are top-10-round guys, and I think all three will play professional baseball one day," Brooks said.
Lovvorn literally became a bigger blip on the draft radar this season.
Called a "late bloomer" by Brooks, the 6-foot-1 senior has grown about nine inches since eighth grade. He still has two inches to go to match his dad, former Jacksonville State pitcher Mike Lovvorn.
With added size came added strength. Zach Lovvorn's top pitch speed jumped about 5 mph into the 90s this season.
Major League scouts who frequented Oxford games and intrasquad games this season for looks at Stephens, Simpson and Goodson began showing increasing interest in Lovvorn.
"Zach consistently stayed 89 to 92 (mph) all year long," Brooks said. "He has a great changeup that a lot of guys like."
Brooks said Kansas City wasn't the only team to show interest.
Teams including St. Louis, Cincinnati, San Francisco, the Chicago Cubs and New York Yankees kept a radar gun on him much of the season.,
Lovvorn said the increased attention from scouts was exciting but daunting.
"I probably filled out, I'd say, around 20 forms for each organization just in, like, a two-month period," he said.
The load of his increasing draft status and concentrating on Oxford's run to a 6A title prompted him and his family to hire Texas-based agent Kyle Dison about two months ago.
Lovvorn said the Royals showed him the most interest from the start.
"The Royals guy, he's been on me the most," he said. "He's contacted me week by week and was really getting after me."
After Oxford clinched its first state title in baseball and first in any sport as a 6A school on May 19, things happened quickly for Lovvorn. The Royals invited him and other prospects for a pre-draft workout at Kauffman Stadium on June 1.
After the workout, he attended the Royals' 2-0 victory over the Oakland A's that night then spent time talking with Royals brass after the game.
"The assistant GM and the scouting director come and talked to me, and we talked for a good hour and a half," Lovvorn said. "We were the last ones to leave the stadium.
"We get back to the hotel, and we could tell that they really liked me, because they wouldn't just stay and talk to me for an hour and a half for no reason at, like, 11:45 at night."
He said he and the team "worked out a pretty good deal," which included a guarantee on money but no guarantee on which round.
The Royals called him Monday night and informed him they would up the money but take him in a later round.
"Some guys were more concerned about the round they went in instead of the money," he said. "So, they knew that they gave me a decent amount of money, I'm not the kind of guy to really worry about which round it is."
Lovvorn finished his senior season with a 5-2 record, 2.2 ERA and 75 strikeouts in 55 innings. He said he's "thankful" to be a Royal.
"They're a great organization," he said. "They really care about their players, and their player-development program is unbelievable."

Senior Paul Wyatt (Modbury, England/Ivybridge) received the team's most valuable offensive player award. He led JMU in in goals (9) and points (21) in 2012.
Senior Dale Robins-Bailey (Bollington, England/Tytherington) and freshman Bjarki Aðalsteinsson (Kópavogur, Iceland/Menntaskólinn í Kópavogi) shared the team's most valuable defensive player award. In 2012 the two anchored a JMU defense that recorded a 1.20 goals-against average.
Aðalsteinsson and freshman Tom Fouhy (Buckinghamshire, England/Dr. Challoner's) were selected the team's co-Rookies of the Year. Aðalsteinsson started 19 games for the Dukes and earned all-conference honors in 2012. Fouhy started 13 games and ranked third on the team in scoring with three goals and four assists.
The Justin Armitage Coaches Award was presented to redshirt junior Adam Bastidas (Catasauqua, Pa./Catasauqua). The honor, voted by the coaching staff, is named in memory of former JMU player Justin Armitage. Bastidas won the award for the second year in a row.
Senior Gene Daniels (Stafford, Va./Colonial Forge) received the Michael J. Frye Memorial Award, which honors players who represent the personal characteristics of former JMU player Mike Frye.

RALEIGH — His comments might have been over the top, but state Transportation Secretary Tony Tata has this much right: A lawsuit that has stopped a replacement span for the Bonner Bridge callously disregards the economic welfare of Outer Banks residents.
Earlier this month, the state Department of Transportation was forced to close the bridge after workers discovered that erosion had undermined bridge pilings.
Tata heaped blame on the Southern Environmental Law Center, which represents environmental groups that have challenged a 2011 contract to build a 2.8-mile replacement next to the existing bridge.
These ivory tower elitists file these lawsuits from their air-conditioned offices in Chapel Hill, and they do so with their lattes and their contempt, and (they) chuckle while the good people of the Outer Banks are fighting hard to scratch out a living here based on tourism and based on access, Tata said.
The lawyers at the SELC probably arent chuckling, even if they enjoy a good latte from time to time.
In response, one of the lawyers, Julie Youngman, noted that DOT officials a decade ago signed off on a 17-mile bridge alternative. That bridge would have bypassed Pea Island National Wildlife Refugee by bringing traffic over Pamlico Sound, a favored route of the environmental groups.
Youngman said the current situation could have been avoided had Dare County officials not stopped the project back then.
And maybe Lieutenant Maynard never would have found Blackbeard if he had anchored on the other side of Ocracoke Island.
Youngmans speculative take on history avoids a few critical details, among them that then-Gov. Mike Easley and then-Senate leader Marc Basnight are the people who actually put the breaks on the 17-mile bridge plan.
They did so because the people there didnt want it and because the price tag, as much as $1.4 billion, created huge questions regarding its financing.
As for those people, one reason they never wanted the 17-mile span is because it would have made Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge virtually inaccessible to anyone who didnt own a boat.
That appears to be the aim of the SELC and their environmentalist clients, along with getting N.C. 12 out of the refuge.
What they dont talk much about is the environmental footprint of a 17-mile span through a sound that serves as a nursery area for fish and turtles. That environmental footprint includes the dredging that would be required to put the bridge there.
Its that trade-off that makes the the SELC lawyers pretty vulnerable to Tatas charge of being elitists who, in this case, see the environment as something separate from the people who live in it, something to be appreciated only if it is roped off, like a museum exhibit, from those despoilers who walk on two feet.
They would be wise to wake up to that vulnerability and ask themselves how much the animosity created along the Outer Banks is costing them elsewhere.

4522 Fredericksburg Rd, San Antonio, TX | Directions 7820129.492631 -98.552205
Neighborhoods: Central San Antonio, Balcones Heights
unique theater – Only theater in san antonio that plays good movies.
Also allow no loud annoying children, serve non-theater food, display artwork, and mostly never overly crowded
offer's a good alternative to the traditional movie viewing experience – this is a great little theater that i only found out about because they were playing a slightly controversial movie that i had been dying to see. we passed the theater several times before finding it tucked away in the back corner of the mall next to super target. the theater is clean and they serve food/beer/wine/etc. the staff is professional and nice, however, i'm still confused as to how you're supposed to order from your seat in the theater. it's not at all like the alamo draft house where the waiter comes and asks you what you want. It seemed like, if i had wanted to order something, i would have needed to flag the person down by waving my hands in the air...which i find slightly rude. regardless of the so-so service, i keep coming back to this theater and will keep recommending it to people simply because of the types of movies they play.

At this time last year, we had our first heated round of the "Is It Time To Break Up The Big Three?" debate.
The Miami Heat, facing elimination in Game 6 of the 2012 Eastern Conference finals, won, 98-79, in Boston. That night, LeBron James was everything Cavs fans had wanted him to be in 2010 against the Celtics — a Michael Jordan-like assassin.
The Heat won six of their last seven games that postseason, James claimed his first NBA championship — and shed his reputation of playing passively in big moments.The Big Three of James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh seemed better than ever this season, winning 66 games in the regular season, including 27 in a row. Prior to a Game 1 loss to the Bulls in the Eastern Conference semifinals, Miami had lost twice in a span of 43 games.Then, as if David Stern had demanded that there be some drama in his postseason, the Indiana Pacers — who ranked 23rd in the offense-first NBA in points per game (Indy scored 1.8 fewer points per contest than the 58-loss Cavs) and 26th in field-goal percentage in the regular season — emerged as the next bruisers who could break up the Big Three.This version of the mania that follows James is even more fascinating than the discussion during the 2012 playoffs.Sure, James almost single-handedly kept Miami alive last year against Boston, racking up 45 points, 15 rebounds and five assists in Game 6 (Wade and Bosh combined for 24 points in that contest), but check out Miami's 2012 postseason statistics.James was fantastic, but he had a heck of a sidekick in Wade, who averaged 22.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.3 blocks in the playoffs.This postseason, Wade has been bothered by a bone bruise in his right knee and Bosh has a sore ankle.The result has been a plethora of "Miami Cavaliers" references, thanks to James being forced to return to his ball-dominating ways.James is averaging 25.8 points on 51.7% shooting in the postseason.With his injury robbing him of his explosiveness, Wade, who no longer seems to have any faith in his jump shot, is averaging 13.6 points on 12.3 shots in the playoffs.Bosh has norms of 12.5 points and 9.9 shots — down from 16.6 and 12.3 in the regular season.Wade's comments following Miami's loss at Indiana in Game 6 of the East finals were riveting.Two of the most intriguing:
The Indians have yet to announce what they will do for the fans who purchased tickets to Friday's game against the Rays that ended at 2:53 a.m., after almost five hours of rain delays.The important part is the Tribe says it will announce soon what perks the fans might receive, since the majority of the crowd of 30,000-plus for the 9-2 loss to Tampa Bay only saw an inning or two of action.The Indians' rationale for waiting it out Friday — the shaky weekend forecast, plus the fact that this weekend marked Tampa's only visit to Cleveland, and the teams had no other viable, mutual off days for a makeup game — make sense.Via Twitter, Mark Shapiro thanked the fans who endured the delays, and the Tribe president said the team "will work to make it right."The Indians also released a statement over the weekend apologizing to the fans, which, combined with Shapiro's tweets, almost immediately nixed any potential outcry.Other organizations should take note.
Congrats to the Cavs' in-house production team, QTV, which won an Emmy for its in-game video open.The Cavs also won Emmys in the category — Best Promotion of Program Sports — in 2010 and 2011.If you're keeping score at home, Machine Gun Kelly, in the past two weeks, has been part of an Emmy-winning production, the Cavs winning the draft lottery and Grantland.com making fun of his inability to tie a tie.
